Hi Bri,
Doesn't sound like Tardive Dyskenesia or Dystonia to me (I have medication induced Dyskenesia and Dystonia) and I don't believe the meds you were on have any documented association with these disorders. Also, mental disorders don't "cause" any sort of movement disorders - only the medications taken for the mental disorders cause the problems - mainly neuroleptic drugs.
It's very interesting that you mention that you "picked" up something without realizing it. That is peculiar. I would maybe think about seeing a Neuro/Psych. Sounds to me like Tourettes syndrome type behaviors - but I am far, far away from being a doc.
Best thing I've done for my movement disorders (beings there is no cure and really no treatment) - is just to accept them, be a little bit funky and clumsy, be happy and go through life. Good luck. : )
God Bless,
Sue
